- F1 CHECK FOR BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)
- Ignition ON.
- Using a scan tool, perform the BCM self-test.
Is DTC B1D35:11 present?
Yes GO to F2 No GO to F4 - F2 ISOLATE THE HAZARD FLASHER SWITCH
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: Hazard Flasher Switch C2480.
- Ignition ON.
- Using a scan tool, clear the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and repeat the BCM self-test.
Is DTC B1D35:11 retrieved again?
Yes GO to F3 No GO to F6 - F3 CHECK THE HAZARD FLASHER SWITCH INPUT CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: BCM C2280G.
- Measure:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C2480-3 Ground
Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms?
Yes GO to F7 No REPAIR the circuit. - F4 CHECK FOR A VOLTAGE SIGNAL TO THE HAZARD FLASHER SWITCH
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: Hazard Flasher Switch C2480.
- Ignition ON.
- Measure:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C2480-3 Ground
Is the voltage greater than 11 volts?
Yes GO to F5 No GO to F6 - F5 CHECK THE HAZARD FLASHER SWITCH GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
Is the voltage greater than 11 volts?
Yes INSTALL a new hazard flasher switch. REFER to: Hazard Flasher Switch . No REPAIR the circuit. - F6 CHECK THE HAZARD FLASHER SWITCH INPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: BCM C2280G.
Is the resistance less than 3 ohms?
Yes GO to F7 No REPAIR the circuit. - F7 CHECK FOR CORRECT BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) OPERATION
- Disconnect and inspect all BCM connectors.
- Repair:
- corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
- damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
- pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
- Reconnect the BCM connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
- Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
Is the concern still present?
Yes CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, Refer to BCM Guided Routine . No The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
